Chapter 225: Chapter 113: War! Launch
The Steam Spirit Realm.
Zorn and Isaac were there, along with many other Transcendents of various Levels.
Some were gathered in small groups, conversing in hushed tones.
Others stood alone with their eyes closed, resting and conserving their energy.
Participating in this operation, besides Zorn and Isaac, were seven other powerful Transcendents at Level Six and Level 7, all with formidable Sequences.
What surprised Zorn was that Isabelle Isaiah, Her Imperial Majesty the Empress of the Otan Grelle Steam Empire, was also joining this operation.
Not far away, Lady Sun was speaking quietly to Isabelle, who was nearly Level 7.
"Lord Zorn, everyone here is such a high Level."
Isaac’s eyes swept over the area as he spoke in a hushed voice.
"Outside, it’s rare to even see a Transcendent of the Middle Rank Level. I used to think my Level Six was pretty high."
"But here, Level Six is practically the bottom of the barrel."
Zorn chuckled at his words.
"This is a gathering place for all the major powers of the Steam Empire. It’s only natural that there are more high-Level Transcendents."
"However, there are also quite a few sinister Sequences here."
"True enough!"
Isaac nodded.
"Over the last few days, while patrolling and exploring the Spirit Realm here in the Ancient Porcelain Holy City, I’ve already found several Sequences exuding an aura of dark corruption."
"Spirit Realm Walking is incredibly convenient; you can bypass so many obstacles."
"Of course, it’s also easy to lose your prey, but as long as your senses are sharp enough, you can still pursue them through the Spirit Realm."
Speaking of Spirit Realm Walking, Isaac’s face lit up with delight.
Over the past few days, he had learned a great deal of previously unknown Extraordinary Knowledge and Abilities from Zorn, especially regarding Spirit Realm Walking.
Zorn nodded slightly.
"After this battle, I’ll teach you more about Spirit Realm Walking. It will help you become a better hunter in the Spirit Realm."
"Understood. Thank you, Lord Zorn."
Isaac thanked him gratefully.
While they waited, Lady Sun approached with Empress Isabella.
"Your Imperial Majesty!"
"Lady Sun."
Zorn greeted the two beautiful women.
"Empress Isabella will be accompanying you. Please ensure Her Imperial Majesty’s safety."
Lady Sun said in a pleasant tone.
"I will, Lady Sun," Zorn replied.
"Besides, safety is our top priority for this mission. If everything goes according to plan, there shouldn’t be any major issues. And even if something does go wrong, we can retreat without difficulty."
After the new Steam Empire was established, Isabelle successfully became the Empress of the new Empire.
However, the various factions continued to engage in fierce internal struggles.
Empress Isabella’s position was not secure.
Winnie Isaiah led her legions on the front lines, achieving one victory after another.
She was said to have built up considerable prestige at the front.
Furthermore, Udora Isaiah had contacted the "Witch Alliance Organization" from an Exotic Realm, and numerous powerful Witches were now entering the World.
These days in the Ancient Porcelain Holy City, one could often spot powerful Exotic Witches.
Although this meant relying on outside forces, it had undeniably strengthened the Transcendent power of the Ancient Porcelain Holy City.
This gave the fledgling Steam Empire a greater ability to resist the Transcendents of Saintisman.
In contrast, Empress Isabella, who was heavily backed by the Sun Church, had few accomplishments to her name.
This was a point of constant attack from the other major factions.
Impeachment bills had even been submitted to Congress.
Though Congress refused to pass them, Isabelle still needed to demonstrate sufficient merit of her own.
In the original timeline, Isabelle had climbed her way to the top, step by step, over the corpse of Zorn Corick.
She had seized many of the powers that originally belonged to Zorn Corick and had used Zorn to farm numerous achievements and merits, naturally solidifying her position.
But in the current version of the World, there was no major Boss for her to farm for achievements.
Naturally, this left Isabelle’s position as Empress rather unstable.
Therefore, Lady Sun had arranged for Isabelle to participate in this operation.
This was to allow her, as the Empress, to earn some achievements of her own.
As a [Gray Mist Walker], a naturally powerful Sequence, Isabelle’s own foundation was not weak, especially when combined with the resources at her disposal.
If she trained and developed properly, even if she couldn’t become a World-level existence, she could still fully unleash the traits of her Sequence and become a Boss-Level powerhouse.
As they were talking,
VMMMM~~
A "Spirit Realm Passage" spanning a vast distance slowly began to glow.
As the Transcendents of the [Wanderer Sequence] from the Steam Spirit Realm established a connection with the "Far Traveler’s Spirit Realm Passage," the passage successfully linked to Otan Grelle’s Steam Spirit Realm.
A faction with a significant number of [Wanderer Sequence] members could construct a large-scale "Traveler’s Gate" for long-distance travel.
Whether for Spirit Realm Walking or for long voyages through the distant Star Realm, they were incredibly convenient.
For any major power that wishes to grow and expand, the scale and number of their [Wanderer Sequence] members is a crucial factor.
When the experts from both sides met, they naturally exchanged pleasantries and information.
Zorn’s gaze fell upon the [Nightmare Angel].
Noctifanel possessed the "Eternal Death Ash Angel Helmet." Her entire head was locked within this piece of Eternal Sequence equipment, which could never be removed.
The only thing visible was her long hair, which flowed like liquid mercury.
The Eternal Death Ash Angel Armor enveloped her, accentuating her perfect figure.
